This 2CD set features the A & B sides of all his releases between 1947 and 1961 and brings together all of his singles for the Peacock & Aladdin labels on one collection. Despite receiving very little chart success, many of his singles were highly original and are now so famous it becomes difficult to understand why, "Boogie Uproar", "Okie Dokie Stomp", "Gate Walks To Board" and many others were staples for bar bands for years to come and were a huge influence over guitarists like Johnny Winter, Anson Funderburgh and Stevie Ray Vaughan. He didn't like to be called a bluesman but whether he liked it or not, he was undeniably a major influence over the genre throughout his lifetime.
